Clare Holmes-Callis 
Speech and Language Therapist

I am a speech and language therapist working in the National Health Service as well as working as an independent (private) therapist. In the N.H.S. I am a specialist speech and language therapist working with children with autism and learning difficulties. Prior to my current post I worked in a variety of community clinics which gave me experience of children with a range of communication disorders.

Memberships

I am a member of:

The Health Professions Council, (H.P.C.) 
The Association of Speech and Language Therapists in Independent Practice (A.S.L.T.I.P.)
Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists (R.C.S.L.T.)

This means that I adhere to certain guidelines, that I've been awarded a license to practice and that I have studied to degree level in order to do this complex job. Registered Speech and Language therapists are also committed to regular training and maintaining their competence in certain skills.

As I also work for the N.H.S., I am very interested in liaising with my N.H.S. colleagues to ensure that should you wish your child to opt into the N.H.S. service it can be done with ease. 

Training

I have received training in:
Makaton
Picture Exchange Communication Systems (P.E.C.S.)
Lidcombe therapy for children who stutter
Parent child interaction therapy
Hanen "it takes more than words"
Hanen "More than words"
